Sendmail Config Question

Been tearing my hair out over a sendmail config here most of the day. 
Maybe someone can help me out.

Sendmail's already working right on 2 servers here, trying to get it 
to work the same on a 3rd.  I just want it to send messages to our 
smtp server - so not have it normally running as a daemon at all.

My config.mc file is currently:


VERSIONID(`$Id: generic-darwin.mc,v 1.3 2002/04/12 18:41:47 bbraun Exp $')
OSTYPE(darwin)dnl
DOMAIN(generic)dnl
define(`ALIAS_FILE', `/etc/mail/aliases')
define(`confDONT_BLAME_SENDMAIL', `GroupWritableDirPathSafe')
define(`SMART_HOST', `smtp:[mail.pointinspace.com]')
# FEATURE(`smrsh',`/usr/libexec/smrsh')
FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)
# FEATURE(`virtusertable',`hash -o /etc/mail/virtusertable')
# FEATURE(`genericstable', `hash -o /etc/mail/genericstable')
# FEATURE(`mailertable',`hash -o /etc/mail/mailertable')
# FEATURE(`access_db')
MAILER(local)
MAILER(smtp)


but when I try to send through sendmail, I get the following error:

Apr 16 10:24:31 mysql4 sendmail[17301]: h3GHOVNU017301: 
to=test at pointinspace.com, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:00, 
xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=30135, relay=localhost 
[127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by localhost


What it SHOULD be is "mailer=esmtp" and "relay=mail.pointinspace.com" 
- at least that's what the other machines' logs show when it's 
successful.

Haven't been able to tell where my config is wrong at all.  Any 
ideas?  Thanks!!
